Hello guys, I'm trying to build a procedure very simple.
For "information security policies" beyond me i need to run a procedure that creates a new table with an user wich doesn't have creation permissions. Inside the procedure i need to log as owner(wich has permissions) and execute the create statement. I know this is kind of ridiculous and there are more effective ways, but it's the way the corporate do this things.
So basically, inside procedure: log as userOwner and Create Table (the table name is passed as parameter of the procedure)

I'm having problems to find some code or references to do the user change inside a procedure. Can anyone help me with this?
Thankss!!

check out DBMS_SQL. It will allow you do login separately and execute sql commands.

Thanks for the response. I'm looking the package, but still don't find how to login with dbms_sql inside the procedure.
I'm thinking i should something like an alter session set current_schema=owner;
create table (...); But don't know if this will work

Sorry, I was wrong. You can do it using exec_sql, but thats a form application.

>i need to run a procedure that creates a new table
It is unwise to CREATE TABLE from any procedure.
Procedures are designed & meant to be run multiple times.
Any procedure that include CREATE TABLE devolves to a run once procedure.
Objects should be created via static SQL that gets runs once prior application version upgrade.
